Halt!
No, my lady. You shouldn't be around here.
I will not let you have the final say in this.
Now hurry along!
Let's go.
EPISODE 14
How...
Why are you like this?
Why...
Why are you like this?
"I miss you, Eugene.
Dear great and noble one.
My son.
Wherever you are,
I will pray for you.
Even on the nights when I don't pray,
I hope that God is always with you.
From Joseph."
Take care of the body with respect.
Move Mr. Joseph to Hanseong Hospital.
-Did you look into it? -Yes.
A dead American missionary was brought here from Jemulpo.
He wasn't in an accident.
He was attacked.
He was shot.
The man who wrote this letter is the one who helped me
live there as Eugene.
If it weren't for him,
I would've died.
Boss.
An American was murdered in our area.
The one who looks like a Joseon man?
No, it was a real American with blond hair and pale skin.
That's too bad.
-Where? -At the Japanese settlement in Jemulpo.
Now that's troublesome.
Look into it
and see if it was our men's doing.
Yes, sir.
The bag's ripped.
Suspect must be looking for something.
What might Mr. Joseph have had.
It's a ferry ticket to Shanghai dated three days ago.
Three days ago?
That's when we were at Jemulpo Harbor to retrieve military supplies.
The letters you saw at Room 205 of the Glory Hotel.
Why were letters from Hamgyong Province in Kim Yong-ju's room?
And it's odd how only letters sent to you were found in a different place.
Where exactly was it?
Maybe that's why nothing has been going my way since I moved there.
Even a thief broke into the house a few days ago.
Read it.
If you add everything up,
this is connected to the incident
where Kim Yong-ju attacked you.
What's odd is the order of events.
Were you always the intended target,
or were you used to get to the deceased?
Yong-ju Kim was not at the Joseon's Office of Police Affairs.
He was released four days ago.
Four days ago?
That's just one day before the murder.
Only one person
has the answers to these questions.
How am I supposed to read it when it's covered in blood?
I had people pay Kim Yong-ju's family who are currently in Japan.
I also have a man following him.
Are you sure it's all right to just let him be?
Let him be?
There aren't better shackles than family.
He won't take us down with him, so don't worry.
Shall we get ready to enter the palace then?
Enter the palace?
You have the emperor's secret letter.
By blackmailing the emperor, you can become the minister of foreign...
Why would I go to him myself
and announce that I killed the missionary?
Listen to me carefully.
This letter is a fake.
The emperor never saw or wrote this.
It's a fake?
If it was, would the emperor give me what I want?
But you just said...
Just get the door.
I'm sure that you can do.
Yes, sir.
Who opened the gates?
This is highly disrespectful.
Where do you think you are?
Kim Yong-ju was released from the police.
He must be innocent then.
Is that why you came barging in here?
This is a minister's residence!
It's a great hideout for a suspect.
Search for him.
-Yes, sir! -Yes, sir!
Are you insane?
You're nothing but a mere soldier!
You better not try anything.
I'd rather not take it out on you.
I see that you're quite bold.
It's like you have a death wish.
I'm sorry, sir.
They just barged in here.
Three days ago in Jemulpo,
an American missionary was murdered.
I suspect Kim Yong-ju as the killer
and that you're the mastermind.
Really?
Maybe I could add on to that.
Half the trouble that occurs in Joseon
is instigated by me.
But no one can hold me responsible.
Do you know why?
Five members of the Righteous Army plotted to execute me.
In return, I even rounded up the farmers who aided them
and had all of them killed as rioters.
That happened right before I was sent to Japan as a minister.
You weren't the only one who wanted justice in Joseon.
You son of a bitch.
What?
Being an American, I must've spoken my mind.
I don't know how it's been for you,
but you'll have to worry about your life when you give future orders.
I'm an American
who has started to suspect you.
No matter how long it takes, I'll come for you.
You pathetic fool.
Are you saying you want Japan as your enemy?
I couldn't do that.
Still, I could make them turn against you.
Sure. Keep coming at me.
You should hurry up though.
I'm sure the culprit has been caught as about now.
So what will you do?
Well?
Say that again.
Who are you accusing me of killing?
The American missionary.
That's bullshit.
What will you do if it were me?
Now, who else killed the American?
I did!
No, it was me.
Take me instead!
It looks like
there are many who wouldn't mind dying today.
That's enough.
I guess it was me who killed the American.
-Boss. -Stay back.
This isn't something small.
We might all end up dead.
Take care of the boys while I'm gone.
I'm sure they didn't understand that.
Lead the way,
sir.
Tie him up.
-Yes, sir! -Yes, sir!
Young master!
Slow down. You'll fall and trip.
That's not it. Didn't you hear the gunshot?
Gunshot?
On my way here,
There was a gun fired in Jingogae and I heard an American missionary died.
Anyway,
you should stay away from Jingogae today.
Oh, dear. I was hoping to visit a fortuneteller there.
Sorry?
Isn't that man in ropes Gu Dong-mae?
It is.
Wait for me here.
What's going on?
Why have you been arrested?
He's the suspect of the recent Jemulpo murder case.
Now step aside.
They're trying to frame me
when I had nothing to do with it.
Keep walking, you bastard!
Hold on.
How could you call him that
when he's smiling even in a dire condition?
Those were some harsh words.
Before he's found guilty,
he remains innocent.
Please treat him with respect.
What is this guy saying? Shut your mouth!
If you're not going to be of any help,
I'll go on my way.
I know the Chief of Police,
so say my name if you're treated poorly.
I'll come and visit!
I hate to say this when we've just met,
but don't let him visit.
What?
Yes, of course.
Gu Dong-mae?
The culprit is Gu Dong-mae?
That's what they say.
